PARIS — Al Hilal Club have announced the signing of French international Theo Hernández from AC Milan on a three-year deal that will keep him at the Saudi Pro League champions until the end of the 2027/28 season.

The signing ceremony was held on Thursday at the Four Seasons George V Hotel in Paris, in the presence of Al Hilal President Fahad bin Saad bin Nafel and the 27-year-old player.

Hernández joins Al Hilal as one of the most accomplished European full-backs, having played a pivotal role in AC Milan's Serie A triumph in 2022 and their Italian Super Cup victory in early 2025.

On the international stage, Hernández has earned 38 caps with the French national team since making his debut in 2021, the same year he won the UEFA Nations League. He also represented France at the U18, U19, and U20 levels earlier in his career.

The high-profile addition underlines Al Hilal’s continued ambition to compete at the highest level following their deep run in the FIFA Club World Cup.
